Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to door hinge assemblies, and more particularly, to automotive door hinge assemblies of a type which comprises one wing member secured to a vehicle body, the other wing member secured to a door, a pivot shaft pivotally connecting these two wing members and bushes disposed about the pivot shaft to smooth the pivotal movement between the two wing members. More specifically, the present invention is concerned with the door hinge assemblies of the above-mentioned type, bushes suitable for such door hinge assemblies and a method for installing the bushes in the door hinge assembly.
  • the construction of the hinge assemblies and that of the bushes for such door hinge assemblies have been given little thought.
  • the bushes employed in such door hinge assemblies are those of a type which is commonly used in light duty devices.
  • frequent opening and closing movements of the door have sometimes induced severe abrasion of the bushes shortening the life of the door hinge assembly in which the bushes are employed.
  • Such abrasion becomes much severe when the bushes are unstably installed in the hinge assembly.
  • Japanese Utility Model First Provisional Publication 55-103371 shows bushes of a type whose outer surface is shaped polygonal. In use, the bush is fitted in a corresponding bore having the polygonal outer surface compressed, for the purpose of suppressing the undesirable play of the same relative to the bore. However, even the bushes of the Publication have failed to exhibit a satisfied result.
  • a door hinge assembly whose life is prolonged as compared with the conventional door hinge assemblies.
  • the assembly comprises a first wing member adapted to be secured to one of a door and a fixed structure, the first wing member having first aligned bores formed therethrough; a second wing member adapted to be secured to the other one of the door and the fixed structure, the second wing member having second aligned bores formed therethrough, the first and second wing members being so arranged that all of the first and second aligned bores are aligned; a pivot shaft passing through the aligned first and second bores to pivotally connect the first and second wing members; plastically deformable bushes respectively disposed in the second bores while rotatably receiving therein the pivot shaft; first means for suppressing rotation of the pivot shaft relative to the first bores; and second means for suppressing rotation of the bushes relative to the second bores.
  • a plastically deformable bush which is suitable for prolonging the life of such door hinge assembly.
  • the bush comprises a tubular part, the tubular part having an end portion tapered toward its free end; a flange part integrally formed on the other end of the tubular part; and means defining a slit which extends axially throughout the tubular and flange parts thereby to provide the bush with circumferentially opposed terminal end portions.
  • a method for assuredly installing the bush to the right position in the door hinge assembly comprised by steps (a) inserting the tubular part of the bush into one of the second bores from one side of the second wing member until the tapered end portion of the tubular part is exposed to the outside of the bore from the other side of the second wing member; (b) holding the bush in such a manner that the flange part is in intimate contact with one side surface of the second wing member; and (c) pressing the tapered end portion of the tubular part toward the flange part to plastically deform the same thereby to produce another flange part on the tubular part, which flange is in intimate contact with the other side surface of the second wing member.
  • Fig 1 is a perspective view of a door hinge assembly which is a first embodiment of the present invention

  • FIG. 11 is a view similar to FIG. 2, but showing a third embodiment.
  • FIG. 12 is a view similar to FIG. 3, but showing the third embodiment.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 of the drawings there is shown a door hinge assembly of a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • the door hinge assembly comprises one wing member 1 adapted to be secured to a vehicle body (namely, a pillar of the body).
  • a vehicle body namely, a pillar of the body.
  • this wing member 1 will be referred to as "fixed wing member” hereinafter.
  • the fixed wing member 1 comprises a vertical base portion 1a which is to be bolted to the vehicle body, and two spaced horizontal supporting arms 1b and 1b which extend laterally from upper and lower ends of the base portion 1a.
  • the supporting arms 1b and 1b have at their leading ends aligned bores 3 and 3 formed therethrough (see FIG. 3).
  • the base portion 1a is formed with openings 2 through which bolts (not shown) are inserted.
  • movable wing member 4 Pivotally connected to the fixed wing member 1 in an after-mentioned manner is another wing member 4 which will be referred to as "movable wing member” hereinafter for ease of understanding.

  • the protruded middle portion comprises a vertical bridge part 4a, and upper and lower horizontal parts 4b and 4b which extend laterally from upper and lower ends of the vertical bridge part 4a and merge with the upper and lower vertical base portions 4c and 4c.
  • the upper and lower horizontal parts 4b and 4b are respectively formed with aligned bores 5 and 5.
  • the upper and lower vertical base portions 4c and 4c are formed with respective openings 6 and 6 through which bolts (not shown) are inserted to achieve a bolted connection of the movable wing member 4 to the vehicle door.
  • bushes 7 and 7 are respectively put in the bores 5 and 5 of the upper and lower horizontal parts 4b and 4b.
  • the bushes in the bores are arranged in a mirror image manner, as shown.
  • the bush 7 is produced by stamping a plastically deformable material sheet which comprises an expanded metal mesh and a suitable plastic (for example, tetrafluoroethylene or the like) filling up the meshes of the metal mesh.
  • a plastically deformable material sheet which comprises an expanded metal mesh and a suitable plastic (for example, tetrafluoroethylene or the like) filling up the meshes of the metal mesh.
  • the material sheet for the bush 7 is disclosed in Japanese Patent First Provisional Publication No. 64-79417.
  • Each bush 7 employed in the first embodiment comprises a tubular part 7a intimately received in the corresponding bore 5, a larger circular flange part 7b projected from the bore and intimately contacting the outer surface of the corresponding horizontal part 4b and a smaller circular flange part 7c projected from the bore 5 and intimately contacting the inner surface of the corresponding horizontal part 4b.
  • each bush 7 is made very smoothed.
  • the bush 7 is formed with a slit 8 which extends generally axially to define circumferentially opposed terminal ends 9 and 10 of the bush 7.
  • the opposed ends 9 and 10 are formed with mutually engageable wave-like portions, each including a rounded projection (or convex portion) 9a or 10a and a rounded recess (or concave portion) 9b or 10b. That is, when kept unstressed, the bush 7 assumes its expanded state as shown in FIG. 4, while, when stressed from the outside, the bush 7 completes its cylindrical shape having the wave-like opposed portions 9 and 10 neatly mated. This will be understood from FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 5 shows the method for installing the bush 7 to the bore 5 of each horizontal part 4b of the movable wing member 4.
  • a press machine which comprises upper and lower press dies 13 and 17.
  • the press die 13 is provided with a guide shaft 14 which extends perpendicularly from a recessed part of the upper press die 13.
  • the recess of the die 13 is denoted by numeral 13a.
  • the lower press die 17 is formed with an annular shallow recess 15 and a center bore 16.
  • an untreated bush 7 is inserted into the bore 5 of the corresponding horizontal part 4b of the movable wing member 4. (If, as is shown, the tubular part 7a of the bush 7 is tapered toward its free end, the insertion of the bush 7 into the bore 5 is very faciliated.) Thereafter, the upper press die 13 is placed on the horizontal part 4b having the guide shaft 14 thereof slidably inserted into the bush 7. Then, the lower press die 17 is raised while slidably receiving the guide shaft 14 in the center bore 16 thereof. Finally, the lower press die 17 is strongly pressed against the horizontal part 4b keeping the upper press die 13 on the horizontal part 4b.
  • a pivot shaft 11 is used, which, as is seen from FIG. 3, comprises an enlarged head part 11a, an upper serrated part 11b, a cylindrical major part 11c, a lower serrated part 11d and a grooved lower part.
  • the groove of the lower part is denoted by numeral 11e.
  • the protruded middle portion (4a, 4b, 4b) of the movable wing member 4 is put between the upper and lower supporting arms 1b and 1b of the fixed wing membert 1 in such a manner that the bores of the bushes 7 and 7 (which have been tightly installed in the bores 5 and 5 of the movable wing member 4) become aligned with the aligned bores 3 and 3 of the supporting arms 1b and 1b.
  • the pivot shaft 11 is then inserted into the aligned bores of the supporting arms 1b and 1b and those of the bushes 7 and 7.
  • the snap ring 12 is fitted to the groove 11e of the pivot shaft 11.
  • each bush 7 is tightly installed in the corresponding bore 5 of the movable wing member 4 having the corresponding horizontal part 4b tightly sandwiched between the larger and smaller flange parts 7b and 7c thereof, the enlarged head part 11a of the pivot shaft 11 contacts the upper surface of the upper supporting arm 1b, the larger flange part 7b of each bush 7 is sandwiched between the corresponding supporting arm 1b and the corresponding horizontal part 4b, the serrated parts 11b and 11d of the pivot shaft 11 are tightly engaged with the cylindrical walls of the bores 3 and 3 of the supporting arms 1b and 1b, and the cylindrical major part 11c of the pivot shaft 11 is rotatably received in the tubular portions 7a and 7a of the upper and lower bushes 7 and 7.
  • FIGS. 7 to 10 there is shown a door hinge assembly of a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • the upper and lower horizontal parts 4b and 4b of the movable wing member 4 are provided at their outer surfaces with small stopper pins 4d and 4d, each being located near the corresponding bore 5, as shown.
  • each bush 7 employed in this second embodiment is somewhat different from that of the first embodiment. That is, as is seen from FIG. 8, the slit 8 of the bush 7 is made straight. As is seen from FIG. 10, the slit 8 of the bush 7 formed in the flange part 7b has a sectoral cross section which becomes enlarged as it nears the outside.
  • the sectoral slit 8 of the flange part 7b of the bush 7 has the corresponding stopper pin 4d latchingly engaged therewith, so that the bush 7 is assuredly prevented from making rotation relative to the horizontal part 4b. It is to be noted that the length of the stopper pin 4d is smaller than the thickness of the flange part 7b of the bush 7.
  • the pressing work for providing the tubular part 7a of the bush 7 with a smaller flange part (7c, see FIG. 3) and for achieving the tight engagement between the tubular part 7a and the cylindrical wall of the bore 5 is not necessary because of provision of the latching engagement between the slit 8 and the stopper pin 4d.
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 there is shown a door hinge assembly of a third embodiment of the present invention.
  • the upper and lower horizontal parts 4b and 4b of the movable wing member 4 are respectively formed at their inner surfaces with three radially outwardly extending notches 18. As shown, each notch 18 extends from the corresponding bore 5 and the depth of the same is gradually reduced as it goes radially outwardly.
  • each bush 7 has a smaller flange part 7c which contacts the inner surface of the corresponding horizontal part 4b.
  • the door hinge assembly of the invention is simple in construction, the same can be easily massproduced by means of automation with a reduced cost.
